God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter 177 Erika

[Myla's POV]

…

…

"Huh?!"

"Huh?!"

"??!!"

Our eyes turned wide open as we looked at that kid speaking like us.

'Is she really a zombie?' is what I thought as I looked at that kid standing there, but then I once again sensed the aura that girl was emanating. Because we were so far away last time, I couldn't confirm, but now that I am closer to her, I can literally feel her power creeping throughout the area.

'She is the real deal,' I thought, as only a zombie can give out that much power.

"Octavius," spoke Reeve as he prepared his sword before taking a deep breath as he dashed towards that zombie and

-Slash!

-Slash!

-Slash!

-Slash!

"Mr? What are you doing?" asked that little girl as she stood there without any movement, confused at what was going on. All the slashes that reached the girl vanished in the air as if they didn't even occur, making Reeve look at that girl with a slightly horrified look before he made some more slashes.

10s.. .100s… 1000s of slashes aimed at that girl, but not even one went through, as she just stood there doing nothing. Her eyes observed us before she moved a step closer to Reeve as she spoke,

"Mr., are you okay? Are you sick too?"

'Too?' I questioned as I heard that girl's words. However, Reeve was a bit too terrified at what was going on, enough to not focus on that detail as he took a few steps back and shouted,

"Monster!"

That girl stopped in her tracks as she looked at us with a bit of a complex expression appearing on her face. It felt like she was about to cry, but she held her tears before she smiled as she spoke,"You should go back. The night is about to fall. It will be hard for you if they arrive here." Hearing her voice, I finally realized that it was already evening and the sun would go down in another 15 minutes or so.

"Commander, we should leave while we can," I said as I observed him. Clearly he wasn't going to win and if we spoke more than we should, I don't think we can escape from here. We should leave as fast as we can.

"And leave this abomination alive here? Listen, kids… you go back. I will put my life on the line here," Reeve spoke with a strict voice as he looked at us while that kid was just standing there doing nothing but concentrating on us.

"Uncle. What is an abomination?" She asked in a confused yet curious voice. She slowly blinked as she kept gazing from one of us to another. Innocently gazing at each one of us. Making us question our decision more and more.

"Monsters… come in many forms… don't let your eyes deceive you. If we don't kill her and see what she is hiding, we might end up witnessing something in the future that we can never handle. You must understand," spoke Reeve as he tried to reason with us.

Ray and Jeff gulped and then nodded as they looked at me speaking,"Sergeant Major, we need to leave."

I was a bit hesitant… was it really all right to do this? Was it really okay to do this? We don't even know much about zombies and this apocalypse. Because of the existence of people like Alissa and Michael, I know for sure this is anything but a simple Zombie Apocalypse.

"WHY ARE YOU NOT GOING?!!! ARE YOU DEFYING YOUR SENIOR'S ORDER?" Shouted Reeve, making not only us but even the child shriek a little as she looked at him with a bit of a scared face.

That child slowly started tearing up as she looked at us and sensing something wrong, we took a step back each before I saw Reeve jumping at her without any signal and slashed her as hard as he could.

With the slash, she was pushed back quite a distance as she started crying out loudly,"it hurts! It hurts! It hurts!"

The part that was slashed, that is her front and her face, split apart a little, showing her insides, before they started healing rapidly. We could only gawk at the regeneration speed it possessed. It was a really nauseating sight to see.

Slowly, as her face got regenerated, she started crying more and more before her eyes reached her teddy bear, which was torn in two with that slash that Reeve just made.

For a moment, she grew confused as she looked at that teddy, her eyes widening with horror as she tried to join the teddy back into one, but the more she did, the more the wool escaped out of the teddy making it more messy.

Her expression grew more anxious as she kept speaking,"My teddy! My teddy! Mr. Eli! Mr. Eli! MR. ELI! MR. ELI!"

With the same child-like voice, she started shouting more and more; she started crying more and more. Her eyes were breaking, and so was the space around her.

I could literally see the cracks in the space around her. She was crying ferociously. Before her eyes concentrated on us, especially Reeve.

She looked at him with those tear-filled eyes, which were soon changing to anger, her eyes observing us as she stood up muttering,"it's you guys. You are the reason why this happened. You were always there… it's always YOU PEOPLE!!!!"

Though Reeve just jumped at her, skillfully dodging her space, breaking fragments and reaching her, before slashing her again as hard as he could, pushing her away.

"It hurts! It hurts! Brother!!! BROTHER!!! AWAAAAAA!!!" Like a child, she cried more and more, as the distortion increased much more than before.

"MYLA WE NEED TO ESCAPE AS FAST WE CAN!!! THE SPACE DISTOR-" Though before he could complete the sentence, someone appeared on the scene.

Another kid, this time about 16 years old. He had similar white hair like that girl, but his face was completely bandaged, leaving space for nose and mouth. That kid possessed about the same strength as that girl, though he looked really weakened for some reason.

"Yosh yosh! It's all right, Erika. It's all right. Brother is here now. No need to worry," with a voice that seemed as if a kid with a sore throat was speaking, he consoled that little girl, making her turn quiet as he smiled at her.

Then his eyes turned towards Reeve as he asked,"so people have lost their hearts enough to kill even an unarmed girl?" Reeve looked at them with a slight glare as he spoke,"I don't want to hear that from monsters who killed thousands of children."

'Huh? Monster… but that kid is clearly a human? The signature… it's a bit off, but it's within the acceptable range…' I thought as I observed the brother and sister supporting each other.

"Enough talk. I can't let beings like you walk in our world. Ray, we are killing the girl and taking the weakened one with us for interrogation," Reeve commanded as he looked at them, but before Ray could answer anything.

"Killing children and interrogating the weak. Isn't that what the military does best, don't they?" spoke a voice too familiar to me. A man jumped from the building with 4 other people alongside him, his face as enchanting as ever.

He reached beside that brother and sister duo with a certain smile before he looked at Reeve as if he were looking at something disgusting.

Michael has finally returned… and he didn't look happy one bit.
